How to Fix Your Business Cash Flow in 30 Days


You’re doing the work. Customers are happy. Revenue is coming in.


So why does it feel like you’re always catching up?


Your business cash flow issues are one of the most common (and solvable) problems in small business — if you know where to look.


Here’s how to fix your cash flow in the next 30 days — without loans, gimmicks, or gutting your pricing.


🧾 1. Get Real About What’s Coming In (and Going Out)


Step one: face the numbers.


✅ This week, do a quick cash flow audit:

  • List every invoice, payment, or sale expected in the next 30 days

  • List every recurring expense, bill, payroll, or loan payment

  • Highlight surprises or “timing gaps” (i.e., money coming after bills are due)


👉 Most cash flow stress comes from timing — not total revenue.



📅 2. Collect Money Faster (Without Being Pushy)


If you're waiting 14+ days to get paid, you're funding your clients' businesses — not yours.


✅ Options:

  • Shorten your payment terms (7 days or due on receipt)

  • Add an auto-reminder 1 day before due

  • Offer a small discount for early payment (if needed)

  • Use digital payments for faster turnaround


Need help setting this up? We can automate it in one day.



📉 3. Delay or Pause Non-Essentials


You don’t need to cut to the bone — just pause strategically.


✅ Look at:

  • Subscriptions or software you’re not actively using

  • Ad campaigns that aren’t converting

  • Office upgrades or inventory you can delay

  • Contractors or freelancers on pause-friendly projects


Cash flow is about control — not panic.



💸 4. Get Paid Before You Start (When Possible)


Want instant cash flow relief? Flip the payment model.


✅ Ideas:

  • Collect a deposit up front

  • Offer a “book now, use later” option (holiday or Black Friday deals)

  • Create a prepaid package or membership


This creates cash before the work begins — not after.



📊 5. Track It Weekly (Not Monthly)


If you're only checking the numbers when things get tight, you’re already behind.


✅ Do this:

  • Review cash in/out every Friday

  • Project the next 2 weeks (minimum)

  • Use a simple spreadsheet or dashboard (no finance degree required)


We help our clients do this in 15 minutes a week. It changes everything.

  • Build simple, real-world cash flow plans
